would troff be cheating?  it's a language.
        hello, world
if it is, how about in rc
        echo hello, world
sed
        s/^/hello, world/g
dc
        [hello, world]p
awk
        BEGIN{print "hello, world"; exit}
acid
        print("hello, world");

that's 1/512th of your size limit, if you count all scripts
and all executables.
